While I mentioned last weekend’s announcement of the latest Agatha Awards, it seems I missed the contemporaneous news about which books and authors won the 2019 Independent Book Publisher Awards. There were more than 100 categories of books judged in that worldwide competition, but as In Reference to Murder points out, two were of particular interest to crime-fiction fans.
Best Mystery:
• Gold: Tie — The Moving Blade, by Michael Pronko (Raked Gravel Press), and Shadowed by Death, by Mary Adler (Dancing Dog Books)
• Silver: Full Service Blonde, by Megan Edwards (Imbrifex Books)
• Bronze: The Sleeping Lady, by Bonnie C. Monte (She Writes Press)
Best Suspense/Thriller:
• Gold: High Crimes, by Libby Fischer Hellmann (Red Herrings Press)
• Silver: Tie — The Maw, by Taylor Zajonc (Skyhorse), and Big Woods, by May Cobb (Llewellyn Worldwide)
• Bronze: Death’s Echoes, by Penny Mickelbury (Bywater)
